Get insurance, but tell them to not set it to active till 9/2. Then as your date approaches and it’s solidified, move the date with insurance. You will have proof of coverage with your VIN, which is what Tesla requires.So any idea on when you need to have insurance in place for delivery in Texas? Just got a text saying I needed to have it in place for the 27th and my EDD is Sept 2-5. Seemed weird to have to pay for insurance for two weeks when i don’t own the car.
Thank you. Just wanted to make sure I didn’t need it as of 8/27, which is what I was arguing with the guy about.Get insurance, but tell them to not set it to active till 9/2.

Nope. They just want the insurance with the VIN. I had to do the same in 2019 - remove my current car (trade-in) and ‘activate’ the policy on my new car all in the same day.Thank you. Just wanted to make sure I didn’t need it as of 8/27, which is what I was arguing with the guy about.
LR, Black/Blue, 444 RN, Jan order, just got a vin over the weekendNope. They just want the insurance with the VIN. I had to do the same in 2019 - remove my current car (trade-in) and ‘activate’ the policy on my new car all in the same day.
PS. What did you order? Westchase has three or four Plaids as of this morning.
Wow. 444 already. Feel like we were just seeing 440 Thursday or Friday.LR, Black/Blue, 444 RN, Jan order, just got a vin over the weekend
On Friday I got a VIN. White/Black/19s/No FSD. EDD updated to 8/29-9/3. Ordered pre-refresh. VIN ending in 439XXX. Delivery at Peabody MA.
Today, my SA called to schedule my delivery for Sept 2. He said the car is scheduled to be delivered to the SC on 9/1 and they'll prep it within 24 hours. Fingers crossed!
I think that is just his RN, not vin. Unless you were being appropriately sarcasticWow. 444 already. Feel like we were just seeing 440 Thursday or Friday.
Congrats!
Duly noted.I think that is just his RN, not vin. Unless you were being appropriately sarcastic
I've been considering a Taycan all along. I own Porsches. I decided that I wouldn't be able to take it on long trips due to the woeful charging infrastructure. If I thought Superchargers were really going to be opened up by the end of the year, I might change my mind - but that ain't happening.exact same
Doh. I am a moron. Thanks for that! But it is a good sarcastic commentI think that is just his RN, not vin. Unless you were being appropriately sarcastic
Here's a question for Tesla owners who received their cars in the Oct. - Dec. time period during the past couple of years. Did your VINs show a model year for the current or upcoming calendar year?To help resolve the model year question, check the 10th digit of your VIN. It identifies your car's official model year per the manufacturer. Here's a table for easy reference.

Do you already have a car currently insured in Texas ? If so, you can use that policy to buy the new Tesla. There is a grace period in Texas where new car purchases are covered by your existing insurance. You might call your agent to see how it works. I’ve done this about 10 times, and called in my new VIN when I had the car in hand. Check your policy, you have 4, or 14 days depending on the coverage you want. Tesla has accepted this coverage for the 3 cars I’ve purchased from them in Texas.So any idea on when you need to have insurance in place for delivery in Texas?

Sure! If delivery goes as scheduled, I'm planning to attend the National Drive Electric Week event in Lowell on Sep 25. There is already another Model S registered, but I'm not sure if its the refresh. When is your EDD?Super exciting to hear MSLR coming to the same Tesla store I am waiting to take my delivery! Any chance you'd be willing to let others see the it?
I just used this chart to look at the 2 Volvos I own. A 2019 and a 2021. My 10th position letter corresponds to this chart, for both vehicles. Useful information, thanks. Now, as soon as I get my VIN, I'll know what model year I'm getting.To help resolve the model year question, check the 10th digit of your VIN.

This whole process confuses me. I’ve never sat in a Tesla or even an EV. Never bought a car I wasn’t at least familiar with. Not in a big yank to get one quick, but Tesla sets expectations to which you get excited about. Then move the goal.I ordered in late May 2021 (5/28/21) and received RN1150XXXXX – Refresh 2021 Model S Long Range, white exterior, black interior, 19" Wheels and FSD...
My EDD was updated on 8/10/21 to 11/28/21 - 12/18/21 and then...
